Chapter 1034: I Wish to Be a Menial Disciple

You idiot, did you kill someone you shouldn't have?

The leading white-robed ghost angrily cursed; hearing that, the disheartened ghost kept shaking its head.

I didn't, they're just ordinary people.

It only killed ordinary villagers; there's nothing special about it—who knows how it could have drawn people from Dao Yi Shengdi?

These villagers of Li Family Village couldn't possibly have any connection with Dao Yi Shengdi.

But now the holy land's disciples have blocked the door; saying anything is useless.

These evil spirits were truly frightened into submission by Dao Yi Shengdi; since Dao Yi Shengdi replaced Qingtian Holy Land, their lives have been extremely hard.

Wherever evil spirits gathered, they were almost devastated by a destructive blow.

The remaining evil spirits were each trembling with fear.

At this moment, merely mentioning Dao Yi Shengdi makes the evil spirits feel terrified.

Just as the evil spirits hadn't figured things out, Qian Duo Duo strode in.

Entering the cave and seeing more than one evil spirit inside, Qian Duo Duo froze.

So many?

One person facing many evil spirits, they just stared at each other, and the atmosphere turned strange for a moment.

I thought it was just one evil spirit causing trouble, but I didn't expect so many—did I stir up an evil spirit nest?

However, upon noticing that these evil spirits were all of the disheartened ghost level, with the strongest being no more than a white-robed ghost, Qian Duo Duo soon relaxed.

I didn't expect this remote mountain forest to hide so many evil spirits.

With a flash of his space ring, a long sword appeared in his hand; killing them would let him join Dao Yi Shengdi.

Thinking that, Qian Duo Duo hesitated not at all, immediately leaping up and slashing down at the nearest evil spirit with his sword.

Run.

Seeing Qian Duo Duo kill an evil spirit with one blow, the leading white-robed ghost had no courage to resist and immediately planned to flee.

But Qian Duo Duo naturally wouldn't give them that chance; he flung out a formation disk, instantly sealing off their escape route.

Then the cave became a one-sided slaughter.

Although there were many evil spirits, their strength was too weak; those disheartened ghosts were no match for Qian Duo Duo at all.

Even the leading white-robed ghost, in front of Qian Duo Duo, was just a matter of jumping around a few times.

Soon the battle ended, and all the evil spirits were slain one by one by Qian Duo Duo.

Having completed the mission, Qian Duo Duo returned to Li Family Village, informed the villagers, and then left without lingering.

The mission wasn't difficult, it just took too much time.

After spending several more days, Qian Duo Duo finally managed to return to Dao Yi Shengdi.

At this time, the other Heavenly Pride disciples also returned one after another, turned in their missions, and Dao Yi Shengdi arranged temporary lodging for everyone.

As for which peak to join next, someone would naturally arrange it.

After all the Heavenly Pride disciples had returned, Hong Zun then led a group of stewards to their residence.

You are now considered disciples of my Dao Yi Shengdi; according to talent, cultivation, and heavenly-endowed talent, you can become Outer Door Disciples, while the rest start as Menial Disciples.

Those with high talent naturally start at a higher point; having been an Outer Door Disciple is no problem.

I thought hearing this would make the Heavenly Pride disciples overjoyed, but what Hong Zun didn't expect was that they kept shaking their heads and refusing.

Thank you, Peak Master, but we wish to start as Menial Disciples.

Huh??

Hearing that, Hong Zun was stunned; what do these guys mean? Not willing to be Outer Door Disciples? Insist on starting as Menial Disciples? Are you sick?

Outer Door Disciples receive better treatment and don't have to do menial chores like Menial Disciples.

In the past, who wouldn't want to start directly as an Outer Door Disciple?

Now there's an opportunity; are these guys not going to take it?

Hong Zun looked at the Heavenly Pride disciples with a doubtful expression; what's up with these little brats?

Actually, the Heavenly Pride disciples had already figured it out—what would they do as Outer Door Disciples?

They had already inquired: in Dao Yi Shengdi, meals are allocated according to disciple rank.

Given their current cultivation, if they entered as Outer Door Disciples, they'd definitely be at the bottom.

Even if their talent is high, their cultivation is inferior to others.

So there's no way they could grab a meal; compared to that, if they were placed among Menial Disciples, even with their current cultivation they could still compete.

So, just to get a meal, being a Menial Disciple is no big deal.

Later, when their cultivation improves, they can promote to Outer Door Disciple.

Passing up higher-level Outer Door Disciple positions to insist on being Menial Disciples—looking at all the Heavenly Pride disciples, Hong Zun spoke complexly.

Are you sure?

Replying to the Peak Master, we are sure; we wish to start from the bottom.

Good grief, I've never heard of such a thing, but seeing everyone's resolve, Hong Zun didn't force them; if they want to be Menial Disciples, let them be.

Afterward, the Heavenly Pride disciples, according to their wishes and matching techniques, chose their respective peaks.

This mountain-opening disciple recruitment also ends here.

On the very day the Heavenly Pride disciples joined Dao Yi Shengdi, they deeply experienced the frenzy of mealtime.

When mealtime arrives, the disciples of each peak of Dao Yi Shengdi are like untamed wild horses, rushing madly toward the Zhu Feng canteen.

They had been cultivating, but without warning, everyone, as if having agreed, kicked off their shoes and sprinted wildly toward the canteen.

Are they a bunch of beasts?

Running so fast.

"That's not right, all around us are Menial Disciples."

"I fucking noticed it long ago, but the Menial Disciples of this Dao Yi Shengdi are a bit off."

"I thought that joining the Menial Disciples would give me a chance to eat, but reality is often this cruel."

"The Menial Disciples of this Dao Yi Shengdi are completely different from what they imagined."

"You fucking ever seen a Menial Disciple of any holy land with Purple Mansion cultivation?"

"Having Purple Mansion cultivation and becoming an Outer Door Disciple is supposed to be easy, but fuck, among the Menial Disciples of this Dao Yi Shengdi, Purple Mansion disciples are not few."

"Shī xiōng, your cultivation hasn't yet been promoted to Outer Door Disciple?"

"Running all the way, Qian Duo Duo asked the Shī xiōng beside him with a complex heart."

"Hearing that, the Shī xiōng gave a slight smile and only said one sentence."

"I was already an Outer Door Disciple, I made a small mistake, and was demoted to Menial Disciple."

"Huh???"

"After saying that, the Shī xiōng also muttered softly."

"Being a Menial Disciple is great, the pressure to grab food is much less; unlike when I was an Outer Door Disciple, I'd go days without a proper meal."

"Huh???"

"The voice wasn't loud, but Qian Duo Duo still heard it clearly."

"Glaring at that Shī xiōng with a complex look, gritting his teeth, Qian Duo Duo thought: 'You fucking, this is over the top; not even mentioning Purple Mansion or Menial Disciple, you actually got demoted from Outer Door Disciple.'"

"Looking at his appearance, there wasn't a bit of regret at being demoted to Menial Disciple; instead, he wore a look of joy, as if he had encountered some fortunate event."
